Chapter 36: The Oath and the Oracle
There will be 32 matches on the first day of qualifying, and given that some close matches can turn into protracted battles, the ring will be set in the same ring used in the qualifiers.
In the center of the venue, surrounded by a huge dome stone monument, the three-sided streamer screen was already lit up. Each light screen is divided into two parts, the upper and lower parts, respectively, reflecting the picture of the two rings.
The information of the contestants reflected on the left and right sides of the light screen above is:
Name: Luo Zhiwei.
Age: nineteen.
Vitality level: Tongyuan nine products.
Name: Yu Dalao.
Age: twenty-four.
Vitality level: Kaiyuan eight products.
The information of the contestants reflected on the left and right sides of the light screen below is:
Name: Wujiang Wang.
Age: nineteen.
Vitality level: Tongyuan nine products.
Name: Zhen Beicui.
Age: Twenty-six.
Vitality level: Kaiyuan nine products.
"These two are your babies, right?" The old man in gray who was sitting at the third round table in the first area of the viewing area looked at Wang Wanzhu and Luo Siyu left and right, squinted his eyes, and suddenly asked.
"Zhiwei is indeed from the main lineage of my Luo family. Luo Siyu responded respectfully to the old man.
"These little guys sit in the well and watch the sky all day long, and Yelang is arrogant, so they should always come out and suffer a little, so that they can grow a little. Ha ha. Although Wang Wanzhu said so, his tone did not show the slightest worry.
"Oh, do you really think that among these other contestants, there are really people who can make your baby suffer?" the old man in gray raised the corners of his eyes slightly.
"What Elder Crane said is extremely true. Yan Zixiao, who was sitting at the first table, rarely spoke, "But the island has a large population, and there are many yuan. There are also occasional people among mortals who can embark on the path of cultivation. It is not impossible for one or two of them to produce one or two supreme geniuses. ”
"And that's one of the purposes for which we went out of our way to hold this open tryout. ”
"Even so, I can't say it, old man, I have to expect one or two, hehe. The gray-clothed old man stroked his white beard, and his face couldn't tell whether he agreed with Yan Zixiao's words or not.
"Tongyuan Nine Grades?" Sha Li looked at the player's information on the light screen and read softly, "These two must be the main lineage disciples of the four major families, right?"
"There's nothing wrong with that. Even the elite disciples of the four major families came to participate in this selection competition, and I was surprised at first. ”
Sha Li looked at Kaifeng, she had been whispering something to Cheng Feng just now, but she didn't expect to hear him even whispering to herself.
"What, are you scared?" Kai Feng leaned over, tilted his head, and stared straight at Sha Li's face with a hint of cunning beauty, "Besides, let me tell you, these two are not the strongest in this selection competition. ”
"Oh, could it be that there are still Yuan people from the True Yuan Realm participating in this selection?" Sha Li was slightly surprised.
"Maybe that's a deal. The Si Ko Yuan has made it clear that after this selection competition, if there is no special reason in the short term, the scale of the island guard will not be expanded alone. ”
In other words, if the person who wants to join the island guard does not sign up for the competition, I don't know how long it will be. ”
"Isn't it true that the elite children of the four major families can't be treated specially?" Sha Li obviously didn't believe it.
Kai Feng shook his head lightly and said seriously: "You still don't know about Qiyuan Island, unless you haven't mentioned it explicitly, but as long as you explicitly state the affairs of the islanders, there has never been any overstepping of the rules." ”
Sha Li was a little surprised. He has only remembered more than a month since he woke up, but he has read a lot of books, in addition to the subset of classics and histories, all kinds of anecdotes, miscellaneous books on customs and customs. In addition, I often hear Kaifeng, Xue Qi, Zhi Xian, and Luo Suo talk about various things on the island, and it is not strange to see some things that pull relations through the back door.
The four major families of Qiyuan Island almost control the lifeblood of the entire island, but they are willing to be bound by some rules, which is difficult for him to understand at this time.
"The people of Qiyuan Island act first and foremost, including covenants and private covenants. ”
"In Qiyuan Island, in addition to serious crimes such as murder and rebellion, unwarranted violation of oath is also not tolerated by the islanders of the whole island, whether it is a Yuan or a mortal. ”
After hearing this, although Sha Li felt that such a strange restraint was a little inappropriate, he couldn't say what was wrong.
"Who sets these constraints?
Kai Feng shook his head slowly, his eyebrows slightly frowned, and his voice was lowered: "I heard Grandma say that all of these are determined by divine envoys. ”
"Divine Messenger?" Sha Li was surprised, this was the first time he had heard of this title. "What is this? Messenger of God?"
"Do the people of Qiyuan Island also believe in gods?"
A majestic voice interrupted the conversation between Sha Li and Kai Feng, but it was Yan Suwen who presided over today's qualifying match.
"Everyone, the highlight of this island guard selection, the new island guard qualifying competition is about to begin. ”
"Players, this is your stage, please show your strength. Those who perform well will be rewarded like never before. ”
"Let's get started!"
With a wave of Yan Suwen's arm, all the spectators shifted their gaze to the light screen.
The two players in the ring moved, but the first to do it were Yu Dalao and Zhen Beicui, who had cultivated to a weak level.
For them to make such a choice, everyone watching the battle was not surprised. After all, such a big gap in the realm directly means a huge disparity in strength. The weaker side will only have the slightest chance if they take the initiative to attack with all their might.
A glimmer of losing is not such an embarrassing chance.
I saw Yu Dalao rushing straight towards Luo Zhiwei, and when his body was halfway through, nine golden darts suddenly floated in front of him, and the next moment he flew towards Luo Zhiwei.
Seeing this, Luo Zhiwei's face was expressionless, and she was about to wave her hand to shoot down these golden darts together or enter them empty-handed. Unexpectedly, the mutation suddenly occurred, and six golden darts broke off their original tracks, and three on the left and right flew around the sides of their bodies, directly taking their heads.
"Metallic energy? This hand control can be considered exquisite. Chen Yu nodded slightly, as if in praise.
"The gap is still too big, and this little means can't hurt Luo Zhiwei at all. Kaifeng was obviously not optimistic about the effectiveness of Yu Dalao's attack at all.
Sure enough, when the three golden darts on the left and right were about to hit Luo Zhiwei's side face, the appearance of an afterimage made the six golden darts flutter into the air and collide with each other. The remaining three golden darts that attacked head-on continued to fly towards Luo Zhiwei, who was already dodging backwards.
saw Luo Zhiwei stretch out her left hand and waved, and the fierce vitality brought up the wind to shoot down the three golden darts that were attacking head-on, and at the same time made Yu Dalao, who rushed up, stagnant.
Immediately afterward, her right hand holding the sword was raised, and the blade of the sword was reversed, and the tail of the sword was facing Yu Dalao, and the scabbard was not even removed. As soon as the vitality on his body was clear, an extremely rich vitality light condensed from the tail end of the scabbard, and the air flow around the scabbard violently converged towards the vitality light. As her hands trembled slightly, the Yuan Qi light turned into a dazzling crescent moon wave, hitting Yu Dalao.
The small crescent moon wave is so powerful! Yu Dalao's figure first flew far backwards, and after falling to the ground, he did not slow down much, and continued to slide quickly towards the edge of the ring. After sliding out of the ring, he flew in mid-air before finally landing.
Sha Li looked at Yu Dalao's embarrassed defeat and was silent.
